I have a problem with air when I turn on any water outlet in the home, including when the toilets flush. I am on a submersible pump well system. I just recently purchased the home which was empty for about two years. The air is not all the time, but when it does it, it spurts for 5 sec.- 30 sec. at a time. Any ideas.
Thanks

hi Ray,

As a rule air enters the pump systen through a leak in the suction pipe. This can occur either before or after the check valve but before the discharge side. Try this, take and mix up some dish detergent and water and paint all the joints on the suction side of the line before it goes underground. Check for any activity. If you see any you have located your leak. If not then you may have to call in outside help. good luck, tom
